so my insomnia is back which i guess means that i am adjusting to new york city life i guess. i often wondered why my sleep cycle, or lack thereof, has always been messed up.
yesterday and today i had the great honor of hanging out with with the infamous kerry gotschall who graduated from ku just last year. she moved up here during the summer and living in the bronx where she is teaching and singing. she has taken the task of brining lawrence to me since i miss it so much.
well today i finally sat down and looked at the opera werther by massenet. i will not lie and say that i am intimidated by it but i think it will be good for me since i have always been careful in the rep that i have chosen to perform and lets face it! with the economy beggars cant be choosers. i also called another great friend and i am having dinner with her and her family tomorrow. this friend goes wayy back to when i was an undergrad and she was singing with utah opera. she was an amazing mezzo then is now an amazing dramatic soprano. at her insistance i have called her voice teacher, the amazing bill shumman to try an arrange a voice lesson. apparently he is one difficult man to get a hold of and need to be persistant and call him alot. i called him today so we shall see what happens.
tonight i hung out with kerry and went to a bar and watched the vikings and packers go at it. it was an amazing game and had a great time.
so tomorrow i am going to sit in on the rehearsal at the BIG HOUSE. i need to go over my stuff and sit there and try and take everything in. i think its important to be seen around the met as much as possible so they know that i exist! LOL
so i am still wondering if i would ever live in this city. i do not know if i can harden myself and just become a new yorker.
time will tell
xx
